浙江1月高等教育自学考试英语写作基础试题及答案解析

浙江1月高等教育自学考试英语写作基础试题及答案解析浙江省2018年1月高等教育自学考试英语写作基础试题课程代码:00597I.Correct the errors in the following sentences.(改写病句。

)10%Example:After seeing an offensive mouthwash ad on television. I resolved never to buy that brand again.After seeing an offensive mouthwash ad on television, I resolved never to buy thatbrand again.1. I wanted badly to cry however I remained cold and silent.2. Our school's computers are more advanced than your school.3. Although tired and hungry, the drill sergeant would not let us rest.4. He nearly finished reading ten books during the vacation.5. Fred is energetic, capable, and a man you can rely on.II.Read the following passages and identify the topic sentence in each by underlining it.(阅读以下每段文章,然后在每段文章的主题句下划线。

) 20%1.Despite their hatred of the English, Scots fans have a good reputation abroad. They are one of a group that sociologists call the "carnival fans", who see events like the World Cup as an excuse for a great big party. Other fans in this group include the Danes with their giant Viking helmets and the Dutch, dressed from head to toe in orange. Carnival fans usually come from small nations interested in making friends with foreigners.2.A good friend can help you in your study and you canhave fun together and make each other happy. Often you will meet fair-weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money, but when you are no longer rich, they will run away from you. A good friend is as valuable as a precious stone, but it is not easy to find one. In order to find a good friend, you have to bear in mind that the friends must have certain good qualities such as honesty and faithfulness.3.Drunkenness proves dangerous for drivers. A person who has drunk too much beer gets to a strange state called drunkenness. This state is marked either by an unpleasant feeling of balance or by falling asleep. Either of these problems is dangerous for drivers. On the road, a drunk driver is too dizzy to pay attention to traffic signs, and his lack of control may lead him to run toa stop sign, exceed the speed limit, or swerve his car. As a result, he may either hit another caror a person. It is very likely that he will crash his car, and often he will kill or injure himself or others.4.The cafeteria at crowded City College is one of the most overlooked places on campus. The service line is frequently so long that a student gives up the idea of eating altogether. If she is patient enough to wait for food, she is lucky if she can find a place to eat. If she is particularly agile, she may work her way through the masses to a spot where she can eat it before it's cold.Once seated, however, she is likely to find the atmosphere so choked with other bodies, noise and dead air, that she loses her appetite. She can not easily slip away at that point, either.Wedging her way out of the cafeteria, she discovers, is as miserable a matter as working her way in.5.The sky is clear and blue. Sparrows chirp in the earlymornings. The fruit trees in the backyardare beginning to bloom. The hills are turning green, and purple and yellow wildflowers are appearing in the fields. The snow on top of Camel Mountain has all melted. It must finally be spring.Ⅲ.Rearrange the fol lowing numbered sentences so that they will read logically. Put the numbers in proper sequence in the boxes provided below.(将下列句子按逻辑顺序重新排列组合成段落)10%Group One1.The monks looked through the books of the monastery, and these revealed that there had been aFather Anselm there a hundred years before.2.The monk went back to the monastery and found there a doorkeeper whom he did not know andwho did not know him.3.The monk had never heard a lark before, and he stood there entranced until the bird and its songhad become part of the heavens.4. Other monks came, and they were strangers to the monk.5. A monk had wandered into the fields and a lark began to sing.6. The monk told other monks he was Father Anselm, but that was no help.2 4Group Two1. When the tap is turned off, the water does not move, but when a tap is turned on, the height ofthe water in the tank exerts pressure on the water in the pipes and forces it through the outlet,i.e., the tap.2. For example, a very narrow spray allows less water to flow than a wide pipe.3. These are the common elements between the flow of electricity and water.4. The rate of the water flow, similar to the flow of current, is controlled by two things: the pressureand the size of the outlet.5. Similarly in electricity, a very thin wire restricts or resists the flow of current. Electriciansmeasure this resistance in ohms and the flow of the current in amperes (amps).6. The flow of electricity through wires and cables from the main supply can be compared with theflow of water through pipes from a water tank.7 5Ⅳ. Note writing (写便条) 20%You've learned that your friend Jimmy is ill these days. Write him a note expressing your concern, asking after his health and giving your best wishes. (About 50 words)Ⅴ. Letter writ ing (写书信)40%You are looking forward to a day when you can study in an American university. Write a letter of application to an American university to express this desire, informing them of things concerning yourself and asking about the possibility of financial support. (150—200 words)。

In front of the tiny pupil of the eye they put, on Mount Palomar, a great monocle (单片眼镜) 200 inches in diameter, and with it see 2000 times farther into the depths of space. Or they look through a small pair of lenses arranged as a microscope (显微镜) into a drop of water or blood, and magnify (放大) by as much as 2000 diameters the living creatures there, many of which are among man’s most dangerous enemies. Or, if we want to see distant happenings on earth, they use some of the previously wasted electromagnetic (电磁的) waves to carry television images which they re-create as light by whipping tiny crystals on a screen with electrons (电子) in a vacuum. Or they can bring happenings of long ago and far away as colored motion pictures, by arranging silver atoms and color-absorbing molecules (分子、微粒) to force light waves into the patterns of original reality.

It is far from enough to read about nature, to camp occasionally, to travel around by car. Life in the country as farmers live is as distinct as can be from life in towns and cities.Of course, everyone can see this sociologically. There are so many different ways of being entertained in a city outside office or factory hours. People entertain themselves at their homes. There are few distractions on a farm and the hours of work are as long as daylight.Still, the main differences lie somewhere else. Country life is demanding and calls for many skills. One has to be a jack-of-all-trades to cope with numerous emergencies and with the varying3needs of the moment for, except on the largest farms, it is not easy to enlist the help of a specialist for each breakdown in machinery, plumbing or electricity.

Read the following paragraph and underline the topic sentence.Apart from its heavy demands on time and money, campus love, though its sincerity should not be doubted, may not be able to stand the test of time. It is relatively easy to maintain a stable relationship on campus, but upon graduation when lovers are faced with different choices—further education or job, staying at home or going abroad—they begin to pursue their respective interests. As a result, lovers may go their separate ways. According to a survey conducted by Nanjing University, 13.6% of campus lovers split up within the one or two months before graduation. Also, due to college students’limited social contacts, the people they develop romantic relationships with are usually their classmates, schoolmates, or friends they get to know in intercollegiate activities. Once they enter society and meet more people, their idea of a good partner may change and they will probably find someone more suitable for themselves. Thus, campus love gradually perishes as time goes by.18. Read the following paragraph carefully and select the best topic sentence from the four possible answers that follow theparagraph.Topic sentence:_____________________________________I love sunny days because they are ideal for outings.

On rainy days, I enjoy the sound of raindrops beating on the windowpanes. I watch the rain washing the trees and grass clean, knowing they will glitter when it clears up and hoping a rainbow will follow. In winter, a heavy snowfall offers a different type of pleasure. Cold as it often is, I always go outdoors and leave my footprints in the thick snow while throwing snowballs and making snowmen with my fellow students.A. A person should learn to be happy in all weathers.B. One’s mood should not be affected by bad weather.C. People usually prefer fine weather to severe weather.D. I enjoy both sunny weather and rainy or snowy weather.2IV. 重新组合段落(5 points, 1 point each)Rearrange the following numbered sentences so that they will read logically. Put the numbers in proper sequence in the boxes provided below.19. George is the best example of this kind of friends; we’ve known each other since we began school; I trust George and cantell him my deepest feelings.20. Missing, however, is the feeling of trust I share with George: we are friends who are just “friends”, not “close friends.”21. I have three kinds of friends in my life: close friends, ordinary friends and acquaintances.22. Finally, I have friends who are just “acquaintances”; these are people I occasionally see at parties or sit next to in class.23. My life is richer for these three types of friends, for they provide me with a healthy variety of company.24. We chat and are friendly with one another if we happen to meet, but that is as far as we go: we don’t plan things together.25. My second type of friends, “ordinary friends” are people I like and do things with.V. 标出与段落内容无关的句子(10 points)Read the following paragraphs and cross out the irrelevant sentences.Good manners are necessary to succeed in business and social situations. As we grow, we become more and more polite.In the work place, good manners can make the difference between getting a job and staying unemployed. When calling to set up an interview, one should be polite and professional to the person answering the phone. Arriving at the interview on time, properly dressed, is another way to impress the boss. Several days after the interview it is polite to send a letter thanking the interviewer for his or her time. Having good manners like these can increase one’s chances of success in the work place. Bad manners are the opposite of good manners.Manners are also important in social situations such as parties. When a friend calls with a party invitation, one should check the date and either accept or decline. Responding promptly to an invitation is an example of good social manners. When attending the party, one should not bring people along who weren’t invited. A guest who shows up with five or six other people will probably not be invited again. When leaving the party it is polite to thank the host and ask if he or she needs any help cleaning up.

2018年自学考试《英语写作基础》试题及答案Ⅰ.Supply the missing paragraph (20 points)The following passage is incomplete with one body paragraph missing. Study the passage carefully and write the missing paragraph of about 100 words. Make sure that the tone and vocabulary you use are in unity with the passage provided.The Advantages and Disadvantages of Living in the CityLike many other city dwellers, I often complain about having to cope with the problems related with city life. I sometimes fancy getting closer to nature and appreciating its beauty fully in the country. Once a friend asked me, “Do you really hate life in the city that much? If you had a choice, would you move away to the country?”I compelled myself to think about city life more seriously. Now I have to do justice to it. Admittedly, the attractions of city life still appeal to me strongly despite its drawbacks.In general, city life is relatively convenient and comfortable. The supply of water and electricity is continuous. Whenever one wants, all he has to do is just turning on a faucet or pressing a button. There is also a variety of vehicles for transportation, form buses and cars to trains and planes, that help people move about efficiently. Shopping centers are seen and there in cities. Thanks to the amazing diversity of commodities, going shopping is often interesting and enjoyable for city dwellers. Besides thefun of making purchases, there are also countless theaters, cinemas, art galleries and restaurants providing residents with various kinds of fascinating entertainment.__________________To some extent, city life is truly divorced from nature. It is sometimes very exhausting because of its fast-moving tempo. But on the other hand, nothing in the world is perfect; neither is city life. Viewed positively, the drawbacks should still be outweighed by its attractions. In fact, the drawbacks can be regarded as challenges to make life in the city more interesting, more exciting and more meaningful. To me, moving away from the city would mean the loss of excitement and the dynamic nature of modern life. Therefore, I would choose to continue to live in the city. Ⅱ.Write an outline (20 points)Read the following passage carefully and compose a “sentence outline”for it.The Decline in Writing SkillsTeachers have always complained that students cannot write well and there can be no denying that in the past twenty-five years writing skills have hit an all-time low. Students as well as many people on the job have difficulty expressing themselves in written English. The decline is due in part to students" attitude towards writing in the past two decades and modern devices such as the television and the telephone.The student protests over 20 years ago were a major factor for the decline in writing skills. At many schools, the faculty gave in and greatly reduced or eliminated freshman composition courses. At on college, where all undergraduates had been required to take two years of English, students were given the potion of taking credits in fine arts, humanities, or English. Most preferred fine arts since it required little effort on their part-and absolutely no writing. With so little demand, the English faculty dropped form seventy-one to thirty within one year. Compounding the problem was the fact that some faculty members felt that making students write correctly was stifling their creativity. They told students not to worry about sentence structure, grammar, or spelling but just to get their feelings on paper. Those who wrote papers with sloppy sentences and numerous grammar errors could pass and even score high if their ideas were on the right track. The results were horrendous and saddening because many students" writing ability greatly declined. They simply could not write properly.The television and the telephone must also be held responsible for the rapid decline in writing skills. Television viewing increasingly takes up more and more of a person"s leisure time, time that should be spent writing and reading. No longer will youngsters write in their diaries or try to express their feelings and thoughts in poetry. Instead they would much rather space out in front of the TV, remote in hand, and switchchannels. Laughter and screaming are constantly heard. Nor will they read extensively and be exposed to the workings of the language and absorb the nuances of effective communication. The telephone is even a greater culprit. Why should one bother to write letters when one can punch in a number and speak to the other party? There is no need to write down one"s thoughts and then wait for a response; gratification is immediate. Modern technology has even eliminated the need to jot notes to other members of the family: the memo unit on the answering machine takes care of that.It is no wonder that writing skills have steadily declined over the past twenty-five years. Today"s youths, for the most part, see little need for writing. The telephone is their direct line of communication, and the television supplies them with immediate entertainment. The student activism of the 1970s has had its own perverse effect: It turned out a whole generation that was taught that correct writing is succumbing to the dictates of society. And the horror of horrors is that many of these students are now teachers.___________Ⅲ.Composition (60 points)With the increasing popularity of the Internet, someone says,“The more friends you get on line, the fewer friends you will have around you.”Write an expository essay (about 300 words)expressing your views on the statement.英语写作试题答案I. Supply the missing paragraph(20 points)However, life in the city is not always attractive and pleasant. Sometimes it could be very frustrating.

The sun is oftern blotted out by the dust and dirt floating in the air. As city dwellers live in a forest of concrete buildings, they see little of the beautiful nature.

They are busy , scurrying from place to place and struggling hard for survial.II. Write an outline (20 points)1. Intruduction: Writting skills have declined.A.
